Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1638245] [NEW] Files in the root of a folder on another partition symlinked to user's home cannot be moved to trash because of a patch in this package
Thanks, I will try that. Maybe tomorrow, but you might be able to reproduce this by creating a symlink in user home to a directory in another partition (ext 4 or ntsf) and secondly going into that dir by clicking the symlink, and thirdly trying to delete any file there (no subfolder).

The patch is there for a reason - otherwise you can't delete on overlayfs. I have asked in a few places for specific steps I can follow from a clean install in a VM to reproduce this problem so that I can try to fix it. Nobody has yet given me them.
